According to the Institute for Supply Management (ISM), the index of business activity in the US manufacturing sector in December fell to 48.4 points, from 49 points a month earlier.

The subindex of new orders decreased in December to 45.2 points (from 47.2 points a month earlier), production – to 48.5 points from 51.5 points. At the same time, the employment indicator rose to 51.4 from 48.4 points.
